Doug did a great job going back in correcting my tax returns, and actually discovered where I overpaid my taxes. Very easy to work with.

Great experience! Doug was quick to reply, professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. My filing ended up being quite simple and he charged me an extremely fair fee as a result.

I had a very complicated tax situation this year and needed a expert I googled cpas in grand rapids and Doug was the first person to show up not only did he figure out my tax situation but he got the best outcome. I will never go to anyone but Doug to do my taxes again. I highly recommend Doug to everyone. He also responds very promptly to calls and email if I could give him more stars i would.

As for many people it has been a tough couple of years and I ended up with a complicated tax situation that I couldn't handle on my own. After doing some research over several days I decided to go with Doug because of all positives things I read. I am so glad I did! Fast, efficient, friendly, and so helpful! I can never thank him enough!

I am currently working with Doug through some stuff. Doug can get you where you need to be. He is a very relaxed guy and really easy to talk with. Especially coming from someone who knows nothing about taxes. His prices are very reasonable. Especially for what he got me. Always answered my questions and got back to me faster then I expected.

Mr. Zandstra is truly committed to working through tax issues, as he provided me with extremely valuable advise, relative to my specific case. He was able to quickly query my lien status through the IRS database during a very brief phone call and make a recommendation that will allow me to resolve my issue in a relative short period of time. I'm sure it would have taken me weeks, or months to figure out a viable strategy! What's best, is he provided this advice at no cost to me. I highly recommend Mr. Zanstra's services! - Alex Howard

I google CPA near me and Doug Zandstra popped up first. All I needed was help with filling out a 518 form, Doug took time and helped me fill it out. He was helpful, funny and patient. I will call him to do all my taxes. He is very thorough. Thank you.

I've always done my own taxes, but this year I decided it wasn't worth the stress. After my first phone call with Doug, I decided he'll be our tax preparer for all future returns. I felt a weight lifted just after one conversation. Our tax forms were thorough and completed quickly. He's gained a new regular!

I located Doug on the internet and read all positive reviews. I was very pleased how professional and efficient he is with his clients. Doug took out the time to answer all my questions and explain his process. I was concerned that I will owe taxes and Doug found tax credits for me that I knew nothing about. I am very pleased with his service and would highly recommend him to handle your taxes!

Working with Doug was way faster and easier than trying to use tax software. He made the whole process painless, and he was so fast. Not only did he do my taxes, he found a mistake I had made last year meaning I'll get money back.

Doug is awesome! Very affordable and quick turn around. He found tax credits that I didn't realize I qualified for as a renter. His correction to my 2017 tax return not only paid for his services (including my 2018 returns) but it put money in my pocket! His office is easy to find and parking is validated. Even better, Doug asked where I parked so I didn't have to remember to ask for the validation! I appreciate excellent customer service and Doug has that in spades. I am recommending him to everyone I know!
